Hi Larry,
Well,I have done some searching and this nice little MAPI snippet
courtesy of Lyle Fairfield does the trick - nice and simple....

.RecipClass = 1
If InStr(aRecips(z), "@") <> 0 Then

End Sub
Sub TestSendMailwithOE()
Dim aRecips(0 To 0) As String
aRecips(0) = "smtp:to***@syspac.com"
SendMailWithOE "Send Mail Through OE", "Sure, you can, Tom!",

End Sub

Can anyone help with automatically attaching say two reports
"rptErrors" and "rptLicSpec" using this MAPI format?
SendObject does make the process of sending a report simple -
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "rptErrors", acFormatTXT, - but not in
OE - pity that. :-(
Now, I read that CDO seems to be all the go - why is it touted as
being more robust than MAPI which seems to work OK?

Hi Larry,
Thanks for the pointers. I did have a look at SendObject last night -
the macro defaulted to Outlook, not Outlook Express. It worked though,
sent the report ( via Outlook )in both RTF & HTML, just need to look a
little deeper then have a look at MAPI etc as per your suggestions.
Thanks for your time.
Regards
Karl

e-mailing anything from Access.

news:7c**************************@posting.google.c om... Hi all,
I am after some suggestions on ways to email an errorlog table. I have
been working on remote interfaces and would like the users to email
the errorlog back to me at the push of a button when required.
Regards
